And he's put out the idea he wants to run for Governor of AZ with Joe as campaign manager. Seagal is not the only one who appreciates the cuddly Putin:

Depardieu gave up his French citizenship to become Russian over taxes. I'll bet Seagal is in the same camp as Gerard on issues like that.

Former German Chancellor Schröder is also best buds with Putin and supported the Russiana actions in South Ossetia:

Not all Germans agree with him. And Chancellor Merkel is said to not be as friendly to Putin.

Henry Kissinger is old friend of Putin, too, or so it's alleged:

They're not the only ones:

Alex Jones and the rest of the Pauliban have spoken highly of Putin. I think we will be seeing a lot more of Putin and we might as well get used to seeing that baby face.
